The catalog in 3D
The same catalog has a room you can walk around in. The cat behind the counter is the AI Catbot, and they pick real games from it when you tell them what you feel like playing. Nothing is for sale, here or in there. Go in from here and this game is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.
How it feels
building and piloting custom ships through a procedurally generated world with combat and resource gathering.

What players say
Players are split on Block of Rum. The ship editor is deep, requiring you to consider weight, buoyancy, and crew, but the UI and building controls frustrate many. Combat can feel unfair, with larger enemy ships that are hard to escape. Long-time players say updates appear to have stopped, leaving bugs unfixed and the game feeling incomplete.
